This page describes the change related REST endpoints. Please also take note of the general information on the REST API.
Change Endpoints
Create Change
'POST /changes/'
The change input ChangeInput entity must be
provided in the request body. It is not allowed to create changes
under refs/tags/ or Gerrit internal ref namespaces such as
refs/changes/, refs/meta/external-ids/, and refs/users/. The
request would fail with 400 Bad Request in this case.
To create a change the calling user must be allowed to upload to code review.
POST /changes/ HTTP/1.0

"subject" : "Let's support 100% Gerrit workflow direct in browser",
"branch" : "master",
"topic" : "create-change-in-browser",
"status" : "NEW"
}
As response a ChangeInfo entity is returned that describes the resulting change.

Query Changes
'GET /changes/'
Queries changes visible to the caller. The
query string must be provided
by the q parameter. The n parameter can be used to limit the
returned results. The no-limit parameter can be used remove the default
limit on queries and return all results (does not apply to anonymous requests).
This might not be supported by all index backends.
As result a list of ChangeInfo entries is returned. The change output is sorted by the last update time, most recently updated to oldest updated.
Query for open changes of watched projects:

If the number of changes matching the query exceeds either the internal
limit or a supplied n query parameter, the last change object has a
_more_changes: true JSON field set.
The S or start query parameter can be supplied to skip a number
of changes from the list.
Administrators can use the skip-visibility query parameter to skip visibility filtering.
This can be used to ensure that no changes are missed e.g. when querying for changes which
need to be reindexed. Without this parameter query results the user has no permission to read
are filtered out. REST requests with the skip-visibility option are rejected when the current
user doesn’t have the ADMINISTRATE_SERVER capability.
The allow-incomplete-results query parameter can be used. This is a boolean
parameter that can optionally be set to true. If set, the server can tolerate
handling faulty records when parsed from the change index, for example if a
field contained a value of a wrong format. For faulty records, the server
will return a canonical empty record where only the fields {project, branch,
change_id, _number, owner} are set and the subject will be set to
"***ERROR***". All other fields will be empty.
Note that the handling of this parameter is up to the index implementation.
Clients are allowed to specify more than one query by setting the q
parameter multiple times. In this case the result is an array of
arrays, one per query in the same order the queries were given in.
Query that retrieves changes for a user’s dashboard:

Additional fields can be obtained by adding o parameters, each
option requires more database lookups and slows down the query
response time to the client so they are generally disabled by

-
LABELS: Includes thelabelsfield which contains all information about labels and approvers that have granted (or rejected) that label. Does not include thepermitted_voting_rangeattribute with the list of ApprovalInfo of theallattribute.
-
DETAILED_LABELS: Includes thelabelsfield which contains all information about labels and approvers that have granted (or rejected) that label, including thepermitted_voting_rangeattribute with the list of ApprovalInfo of theallattribute.

-
CURRENT_COMMIT: parse and output all header fields from the commit object, including message. Only valid when theCURRENT_REVISIONorALL_REVISIONSoption is selected.
-
ALL_COMMITS: parse and output all header fields from the output revisions. If onlyCURRENT_REVISIONwas requested then only the current revision’s commit data will be output.

-
ALL_FILES: list files modified by the commit and magic files, including basic line counts inserted/deleted per file. If only theCURRENT_REVISIONwas requested then only that commit’s modified files will be output.

-
-
SKIP_DIFFSTAT: skip the 'insertions' and 'deletions' field in ChangeInfo. For large trees, their computation may be expensive.
-
SUBMITTABLE: include thesubmittablefield in ChangeInfo, which can be used to tell if the change is reviewed and ready for submit.
-
WEB_LINKS: include theweb_linksfield in CommitInfo, therefore only valid in combination withCURRENT_COMMITorALL_COMMITS.

-
STAR: include thestarredfield in ChangeInfo, which indicates if the change is starred by the current user or not.
-
PARENTS: include theparents_datafield in RevisionInfo, which provides information of whether the parent commit of this revision, e.g. if it’s merged in the target branch and whether it points to a patch-set of another change.

Historical state of the change can be retrieved by specifying the
meta=SHA-1 parameter. This will use a historical NoteDb snapshot to
populate ChangeInfo. If the SHA-1 is not reachable as a NoteDb state,
status code 412 is returned.
Get Meta Diff
'GET /changes/{change-id}/meta_diff?old=SHA-1&meta=SHA-1'
Retrieves the difference between two historical states of a change
by specifying the old=SHA-1 and the meta=SHA-1 parameters.
If the old parameter is not provided, the parent of the meta
SHA-1 is used. If the meta parameter is not provided, the current
state of the change is used. If neither are provided, the
difference between the current state of the change and its previous
state is returned.
Additional fields can be obtained by adding o parameters, analogous
to Get Change, and the same concerns for Get Change hold for
this endpoint too. Fields are described in Query Changes.

As a response, two ChangeInfo entities are returned
that describe information added and removed from the old change state, and
the two ChangeInfo entities that generated the diff are
returned. Only fields that differ between the change’s two states are returned.

If the provided SHA-1 for meta is not reachable as a NoteDb
state, the status code 412 is returned. If the SHA-1 for old
is not reachable, the difference between the change at state
meta and an empty change is returned.

Create Merge Patch Set For Change
'POST /changes/{change-id}/merge'
Update an existing change by using a MergePatchSetInput entity.
Gerrit will create a merge commit based on the information of MergePatchSetInput and add a new patch set to the change corresponding to the new merge commit.
If one of the secondary emails associated with the user performing the operation was used as the committer email in the current patch set, the same email will be used as the committer email in the new patch set; otherwise, the user’s preferred email will be used.

Rebase Change
'POST /changes/{change-id}/rebase'
Rebases a change.
For merge commits always the first parent is rebased. This means the new base becomes the first parent of the rebased merge commit while the second parent stays intact.
If one of the secondary emails associated with the user performing the operation was used as the committer email in the current patch set, the same email will be used as the committer email in the new patch set; otherwise, the user’s preferred email will be used.
Optionally, the parent revision can be changed to another patch set through the RebaseInput entity.

If the change cannot be rebased, e.g. due to conflicts, the response is “409 Conflict” and the error message is contained in the response body.
HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict Content-Disposition: attachment Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 The change could not be rebased due to a path conflict during merge.
Rebasing a change is allowed for the change owner, users with the Rebase permission and users with the Submit permission.
In addition, the rebaser or the original uploader, if rebasing is done
on behalf of the uploader (see rebase_on_behalf_of_uploader option in
RebaseInput), needs to have all permissions that
are required to create the new patch set:
-
the Push permission
-
the Add Patch Set permission (only if the user is not the change owner)
-
the Forge Author permission (only if the commit author is forged)
-
the Forge Server permission (only if the commit author is the server identity)
The same permissions were required for the upload of the original patch set. This means if the rebase is done on behalf of the uploader these permission checks should just pass, unless the uploader lost permissions after the upload of the original patch set. In this case rebasing on behalf of the uploader is not possible and a normal rebase (on behalf of the rebaser) must be done, which means that the rebaser becomes the uploader and takes over the change. If self approvals are disallowed, this means that the rebaser can no longer approve the change (as approvals of the uploader are ignored).
Rebase Chain
'POST /changes/{change-id}/rebase:chain'
Rebases an ancestry chain of changes.
If one of the secondary emails associated with the user performing the operation was used as the committer email in the current patch set, the same email will be used as the committer email in the new patch set; otherwise, the user’s preferred email will be used.
The operated change is treated as the chain tip. All unsubmitted ancestors are rebased.
Requires a linear ancestry relation (single parenting throughout the chain).
Optionally, the parent revision (of the oldest ancestor to be rebased) can be changed to another change, revision or branch through the RebaseInput entity.
Providing a committer_email through the RebaseInput entity is not supported
when rebasing a chain.
If the chain is outdated, i.e., there’s a change that depends on an old revision of its parent, the result is the same as individually rebasing all outdated changes on top of their parent’s latest revision before running the rebase chain action.

Move Change
'POST /changes/{change-id}/move'
Move a change.
The destination branch must be provided in the request body inside a MoveInput entity. Only veto votes that are blocking the change from submission are moved to the destination branch by default.

Revert Change
'POST /changes/{change-id}/revert'
Reverts a change.
The subject of the newly created change will be 'Revert "<subject-of-reverted-change>"'. If the subject of the change reverted is above 63 characters, it will be cut down to 59 characters with "…" in the end.
The request body does not need to include a RevertInput entity if no review comment is added.

Revert Submission
'POST /changes/{change-id}/revert_submission'
Creates open revert changes for all of the changes of a certain submission.
The subject of each revert change will be 'Revert "<subject-of-reverted-change"'. If the subject is above 60 characters, the subject will be cut to 56 characters with "…" in the end. However, whenever reverting the submission of a revert submission, the subject will be shortened from 'Revert "Revert "<subject-of-reverted-change""' to 'Revert^2 "<subject-of-reverted-change"'. Also, for every future revert submission, the only difference in the subject will be the number of the revert (instead of Revert^2 the subject will change to Revert^3 and so on). There are no guarantees about the subjects if the users change the default subjects.
Details for the revert can be specified in the request body inside a
RevertInput The topic of all created revert changes will be
revert-{submission_id}-{random_string_of_size_10}.
The changes will not be rebased on onto the destination branch so the users may still have to manually rebase them to resolve conflicts and make them submittable.
However, the changes that have the same project and branch will be rebased on top of each other. E.g, the first revert change will have the original change as a parent, and the second revert change will have the first revert change as a parent.
There is one special case that involves merge commits; if a user has multiple
changes in the same project and branch, but not in the same change series, those
changes can still get submitted together if they have the same topic and
change.submitWholeTopic in
gerrit.config is set to true. In the case, Gerrit may create merge commits on
submit (depending on the submit types
of the project).
The first parent for the reverts will be the most recent merge commit that was
created by Gerrit to merge the different change series into the target branch.
POST /changes/myProject~master~I1ffe09a505e25f15ce1521bcfb222e51e62c2a14/revert_submission HTTP/1.0

Submit Change
'POST /changes/{change-id}/submit'
Submits a change.
If the submission results in a new patch set (due to a rebase or cherry-pick merge method), the committer email will remain the same as the one used in the previous commit, provided that one of the secondary emails associated with the user performing the operation was used as the committer email in the previous commit. Otherwise, the user’s preferred email will be used.
The request body only needs to include a SubmitInput entity if submitting on behalf of another user.
Submitting a change also removes all users from the attention set.

Changes that will also be submitted:
1. All changes of the same topic if
change.submitWholeTopic
configuration is set to true.
2. All dependent changes.
3. The closure of the above (e.g if a dependent change has a topic, all changes
of that topic will also be submitted).

Create patch-set from patch
'POST /changes/{change-id}/patch:apply'
Creates a new patch set on a destination change from the provided patch.
If one of the secondary emails associated with the user performing the operation was used as the committer email in the current patch set, the same email will be used as the committer email in the new patch set; otherwise, the user’s preferred email will be used.
The patch must be provided in the request body, inside a ApplyPatchPatchSetInput entity.
If a base commit is given, the patch is applied on top of it. Otherwise, the patch is applied on top of the target change’s original parent.
Applying the patch will fail if the destination change is closed, or in case of any conflicts.

the patch_set and author fields set.
If the enable-context request parameter is set to true, the comment entries
will contain a list of ContextLine containing the lines of
the source file where the comment was written.
The context-padding request parameter can be used to specify an extra number
of context lines to be added before and after the comment range. This parameter
only works if enable-context is set to true.

Suggest Reviewers
'GET /changes/{change-id}/suggest_reviewers?q=J&n=5'
Suggest the reviewers for a given query q and result limit n. If result
limit is not passed, then the default 10 is used.
This REST endpoint only suggests accounts that
-
are active
-
can see the change
-
are visible to the calling user:
Whether an account is visible to the calling user depends on the accounts.visibility setting of the server. Which account visibility is configured can be checked by opening
https://<HOST>/config/server/info?pp=1in a browser (see fieldaccounts> visibility in the returned JSON). -
are not already reviewer on the change
-
don’t own the change
-
are not service users (unless skipServiceUsers is set to
false)
Groups can be excluded from the results by specifying the 'exclude-groups' request parameter:
'GET /changes/{change-id}/suggest_reviewers?q=J&n=5&exclude-groups'
As result a list of SuggestedReviewerInfo entries is returned.

Add Reviewer
'POST /changes/{change-id}/reviewers'
Adds one user or all members of one group as reviewer to the change.
|
Note
|
Adding multiple reviewers at once is possible via the Set Review REST endpoint. |
The reviewer to be added to the change must be provided in the request body as a ReviewerInput entity.
Users can be moved from reviewer to CC and vice versa. This means if a user is added as CC that is already a reviewer on the change, the reviewer state of that user is updated to CC. If a user that is already a CC on the change is added as reviewer, the reviewer state of that user is updated to reviewer.
Adding a new reviewer also adds that reviewer to the attention set, unless the change is work in progress. Also, moving a reviewer to CC removes that user from the attention set.

If a group is specified, adding the group members as reviewers is an atomic operation. This means if an error is returned, none of the members are added as reviewer.
If a group with many members is added as reviewer a confirmation may be required.
If a group is added as CC and members of this group are already reviewers on the change, these members stay reviewers on the change (they are not downgraded to CC). However if a group is added as reviewer, all group members become reviewer of the change, even if they have been added as CC before.

If reviewer.enableByEmail is set for the project, reviewers and CCs are not required to have a Gerrit account. If you POST an email address of a reviewer or CC then, they will be added to the change even if they don’t have a Gerrit account.
If this option is disabled, the request would fail with 400 Bad Request if the email
address can’t be resolved to an active Gerrit account.
Note that the name is optional so both "un.registered@reviewer.com" and "John Doe <un.registered@reviewer.com>" are valid inputs.
Reviewers without Gerrit accounts can only be added on changes visible to anonymous users.

'POST /changes/{change-id}/reviewers/{account-id}/delete'
Deletes a reviewer from a change. Deleting a reviewer also removes that user from the attention set.

Options can be provided in the request body as a DeleteReviewerInput entity. Historically, this method allowed a body in the DELETE, but that behavior is deprecated. In this case, use a POST request instead:

Delete Vote
'DELETE /changes/{change-id}/reviewers/{account-id}/votes/{label-id}'
'POST /changes/{change-id}/reviewers/{account-id}/votes/{label-id}/delete'
Deletes a single vote from a change. Note, that even when the last vote of a reviewer is removed the reviewer itself is still listed on the change.
If another user removed a user’s vote, the user with the deleted vote will be added to the attention set.
Note, removing votes is generally disallowed for merged changes as this could remove approvals that were necessary for the submission and it’s confusing to see a merged change which doesn’t have the necessary approvals to fulfill the submit requirements.
The request returns: * '204 No Content' if the vote is deleted successfully; * '404 Not Found' when the vote to be deleted is zero or not present. * '409 Conflict' when the change is merged and hence deleting votes is not allowed

Retrieves related changes of a revision. Related changes are changes that either depend on, or are dependencies of the revision.
Additional fields can be obtained by adding o parameters. Since these may slow
down processing they are disabled by default. Currently a single parameter is
supported:
GET /changes/gerrit~master~I5e4fc08ce34d33c090c9e0bf320de1b17309f774/revisions/b1cb4caa6be46d12b94c25aa68aebabcbb3f53fe/related HTTP/1.0
As result a RelatedChangesInfo entity is returned describing the related changes.

Set Review
'POST /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/review'
Sets a review on a revision, optionally also publishing draft comments, setting labels, adding reviewers or CCs, and modifying the work in progress property.
The review must be provided in the request body as a ReviewInput entity.
If the labels are set, the user sending the request will automatically be added as a reviewer, otherwise (if they only commented) they are added to the CC list.
Posting a review usually updates the attention set.
A review cannot be set on a change edit. Trying to post a review for a
change edit fails with 409 Conflict.
Here is an example of using this method to set labels:
POST /changes/myProject~master~I8473b95934b5732ac55d26311a706c9c2bde9940/revisions/674ac754f91e64a0efb8087e59a176484bd534d1/review HTTP/1.0
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
{
"tag": "jenkins",
"message": "Some nits need to be fixed.",
"labels": {
"Code-Review": -1
},
"comments": {
"gerrit-server/src/main/java/com/google/gerrit/server/project/RefControl.java": [
{
"line": 23,
"message": "[nit] trailing whitespace"
},
{

"message": "[nit] s/conrtol/control"
},
{
"range": {
"start_line": 50,
"start_character": 0,
"end_line": 55,
"end_character": 20
},
"message": "Incorrect indentation"
}
]
}
}
As response a ReviewResult entity is returned that describes the applied labels and any added reviewers (e.g. yourself, if you set a label but weren’t previously a reviewer on this CL).
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Disposition: attachment
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
)]}'
{
"labels": {
"Code-Review": -1
}
}
It is also possible to add one or more reviewers or CCs to a change simultaneously with a review:
POST /changes/myProject~master~I8473b95934b5732ac55d26311a706c9c2bde9940/revisions/674ac754f91e64a0efb8087e59a176484bd534d1/review HTTP/1.0

},
{
"reviewer": "john.doe@example.com",
"state": "CC"
}
{
"reviewer": "MyProjectVerifiers",
}
]
}
Each element of the reviewers list is an instance of
ReviewerInput. The corresponding result of
adding each reviewer will be returned in a map of inputs to
ReviewerResults.

If there are any errors returned for reviewers, the entire review request will
be rejected with 400 Bad Request. None of the entries will have the
reviewers or ccs field set, and those which specifically failed will have
the errors field set containing details of why they failed.

An email will be sent using the "comment" template.
If the top-level notify property is null or not set, then notification behavior depends on whether the change is WIP, whether it has started review, and whether the tag property is null.

Note
|
If adding reviewers, the notify property of each ReviewerInput is ignored. Use the notify property of the top-level ReviewInput instead. |
For the purposes of this table, everyone means owner, reviewers, CCs, stars, and ALL_COMMENTS watchers.

Submit Revision
'POST /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/submit'
Submits a revision. Submitting a change also removes all users from the attention set.
POST /changes/myProject~master~I8473b95934b5732ac55d26311a706c9c2bde9940/revisions/674ac754f91e64a0efb8087e59a176484bd534d1/submit HTTP/1.0
As response a ChangeInfo entity is returned that describes the submitted/merged change.
Submission may submit multiple changes, but we still only return one ChangeInfo object. To query for all submitted changes, please use the submission_id that is part of the response.
Changes that will also be submitted:
1. All changes of the same topic if
change.submitWholeTopic
configuration is set to true.
2. All dependent changes.
3. The closure of the above (e.g if a dependent change has a topic, all changes
of that topic will also be submitted).

Get Patch
'GET /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/patch'
Gets the formatted patch for one revision.
GET /changes/myProject~master~I8473b95934b5732ac55d26311a706c9c2bde9940/revisions/current/patch HTTP/1.0
The formatted patch is returned as text encoded inside base64:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Disposition: attachment Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-FYI-Content-Encoding: base64 X-FYI-Content-Type: application/mbox RnJvbSA3ZGFkY2MxNTNmZGVhMTdhYTg0ZmYzMmE2ZTI0NWRiYjY...
Adding query parameter zip (for example /changes/…/patch?zip)
returns the patch as a single file inside of a ZIP archive. Clients
can expand the ZIP to obtain the plain text patch, avoiding the
need for a base64 decoding step. This option implies download.
Query parameter download (e.g. /changes/…/patch?download)
will suggest the browser save the patch as commitsha1.diff.base64,
for later processing by command line tools.
If the path parameter is set, the returned content is a diff of the single
file that the path refers to.
Get Mergeable
'GET /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/mergeable'
Gets the method the server will use to submit (merge) the change and an indicator if the change is currently mergeable.

Delete Comment
'DELETE /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/comments/{comment-id}'
'POST /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/comments/{comment-id}/delete'
Deletes a published comment of a revision. Instead of deleting the whole comment, this endpoint just replaces the comment’s message with a new message, which contains the name of the user who deletes the comment and the reason why it’s deleted.
This endpoint also marks the comment as resolved since deleted comments are not actionable.
Note that only users with the Administrate Server global capability are permitted to delete a comment.
Deletion reason can be provided in the request body as a DeleteCommentInput entity. Historically, this method allowed a body in the DELETE, but that behavior is deprecated. In this case, use a POST request instead:
POST /changes/myProject~master~I8473b95934b5732ac55d26311a706c9c2bde9940/revisions/674ac754f91e64a0efb8087e59a176484bd534d1/comments/TvcXrmjM/delete HTTP/1.0

List Ported Comments
'GET /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/ported_comments'
Ports comments of other revisions to the requested revision.
Only comments added on earlier patchsets are ported. That set of comments is filtered even further due to some additional rules. Callers of this endpoint shouldn’t rely on the exact logic of which comments are ported as that logic might change in the future. Instead, callers must be able to handle any smaller/larger set of comments returned by this endpoint.
Typically, a comment thread is returned fully or excluded fully. However, draft comments and robot comments are ignored and not returned via this endpoint. Hence, it’s possible to get ported comments from this endpoint which are a reply to a non-ported robot comment. Callers must be able to deal with this situation.
The returned comments are organized in a map of file path to CommentInfo entries
in the same fashion as for the List Revision Comments endpoint.
The map is filled with the original comment attributes except for these attributes: path, line,
and range point to the computed position in the target revision. If the exactly correct position
can’t be determined, those fields will be filled with the next best position. That can also mean
not filling the line or range attribute anymore and thus converting the comment to a file
comment (or even moving the comment to a different file or the patchset level). Callers of this
endpoint must be able to deal with this and not rely on the original comment position.
It’s possible that this endpoint returns different CommentInfo entries with
the same comment UUID. This is not a bug but a feature. If a comment appears on a file which Gerrit
recognizes as copied between patchsets, the ported version of this comment consists of two ported
instances having the same UUID but different file/line/range positions. Callers must be able
to handle this situation.
Repeated calls of this endpoint might produce different results. Internal errors during the position computation are mapped to fallback locations for affected comments. Those errors might have vanished on later calls, upon which this endpoint returns the actually mapped position. In addition, comments can be deleted and draft comments can be published, upon which the set of ported comments may change.

List Ported Drafts
'GET /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/ported_drafts'
Ports draft comments of other revisions to the requested revision.
This endpoint behaves similarly to the List Ported Comments endpoint. With this endpoint, only draft comments of the calling user are ported, though. If a draft comment is a reply to a published comment, only the ported draft comment is returned.
Depending on the filtering rules, it’s possible that this endpoint returns a draft comment which is a reply to a comment thread which is not returned by the List Ported Comments endpoint. That’s intended behavior. Callers must be able to handle this situation. The same holds for drafts which are a reply to a robot comment.
Different than the List Ported Comments endpoint, the author of the
returned comments is not filled for this endpoint as only comments of the calling user are returned.
This endpoint requires authentication.

Apply Stored Fix
'POST /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/fixes/{fix-id}/apply'
Applies a suggested fix by creating a change edit which includes the modifications indicated by the fix suggestion. If a change edit already exists, it will be updated accordingly. A fix can only be applied if no change edit exists and the fix refers to the current patch set, or the fix refers to the patch set on which the change edit is based.
If one of the secondary emails associated with the user performing the operation was used as the committer email in the current patch set, the same email will be used as the committer email in the new change edit commit; otherwise, the user’s preferred email will be used.

Apply Provided Fix
'POST /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/fix:apply'
Applies a list of FixReplacementInfo loaded from the
ApplyProvidedFixInput entity. The fixes are passed as part of the request body. The
application of the fixes creates a new change edit. Apply Provided Fix can only be applied on the current
patchset. To apply a fix that was suggested to a non-current patchset, set originalPatchsetForFix to a patchset
number where the fix was suggested. When originalPatchsetForFix is set, gerrit generates a patch (using
fix-replacement-info and originalPatchsetForFix) and then tries to apply it to the current patchset.
If it is not possible to apply a patch, an error is returned (see below for the list of errors).
If the provided fix modifies the commit message and the message was changed between originalPatchsetForFix
and the current patchset, the request is rejected..
If one of the secondary emails associated with the user performing the operation was used as the committer email in the current patch set, the same email will be used as the committer email in the new change edit commit; otherwise, the user’s preferred email will be used.

The request parameter reviewed changes the response to return a list
of the paths the caller has marked as reviewed. Clients that also
need the FileInfo should make two requests.
The request parameter q changes the response to return a list
of all files (modified or unmodified) that contain that substring
in the path name. This is useful to implement suggestion services
finding a file by partial name. Clients that also need the FileInfo
should make two requests.
For merge commits only, the integer-valued request parameter parent
changes the response to return a map of the files which are different
in this commit compared to the given parent commit. The value is the
1-based index of the parent’s position in the commit object,
with the first parent always belonging to the target branch. If not
specified, the response contains a map of the files different in the
auto merge result.
The request parameter base changes the response to return a map of the
files which are different in this commit compared to the given revision. The
revision must correspond to a patch set in the change.
The reviewed, q, parent, and base options are mutually exclusive.
That is, only one of them may be used at a time.

Get Content
'GET /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/files/{file-id}/content'
Gets the content of a file from a certain revision.
The optional, integer-valued parent parameter can be specified to request
the named file from a parent commit of the specified revision. The value is
the 1-based index of the parent’s position in the commit object. If the
parameter is omitted or the value is non-positive, the patch set is referenced.

The content is returned as base64 encoded string. The HTTP response
Content-Type is always text/plain, reflecting the base64 wrapping.
A Gerrit-specific X-FYI-Content-Type header is returned describing
the server detected content type of the file.
If only the content type is required, callers should use HEAD to avoid downloading the encoded file contents.

Alternatively, if the only value of the Accept request header is
application/json the content is returned as JSON string and
X-FYI-Content-Encoding is set to json.
Download Content
'GET /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/files/{file-id}/download'
Downloads the content of a file from a certain revision, in a safe format that poses no risk for inadvertent execution of untrusted code.
If the content type is defined as safe, the binary file content is returned verbatim. If the content type is not safe, the file is stored inside a ZIP file, containing a single entry with a random, unpredictable name having the same base and suffix as the true filename. The ZIP file is returned in verbatim binary form.
See Gerrit config documentation for information about safe file type configuration.
The HTTP resource Content-Type is dependent on the file type: the applicable type for safe files, or "application/zip" for unsafe files.
The optional, integer-valued parent parameter can be specified to request
the named file from a parent commit of the specified revision. The value is
the 1-based index of the parent’s position in the commit object. If the
parameter is omitted or the value non-positive, the patch set is referenced.
Filenames are decorated with a suffix of _new for the current patch,
_old for the only parent, or _oldN for the Nth parent of many.

Cherry Pick Revision
'POST /changes/{change-id}/revisions/{revision-id}/cherrypick'
Cherry picks a revision to a destination branch.
If one of the secondary emails associated with the user performing the operation was used as the committer email in the original revision, the same email will be used as the committer email in the new patch set; otherwise, the user’s preferred email will be used.
To cherry pick a commit with no change-id associated with it, see CherryPickCommit.
The commit message and destination branch must be provided in the request body inside a CherryPickInput entity. If the commit message does not specify a Change-Id, a new one is picked for the destination change.
When cherry-picking a change into a branch that already contains the Change-Id that we want to cherry-pick, the cherry-pick will create a new patch-set on the destination’s branch’s appropriate Change-Id. If the change is closed on the destination branch, the cherry-pick will fail.

IDs
{change-id}
Identifier that uniquely identifies one change. It contains the URL-encoded project name as well as the change number: "<project>~<changeNumber>"
Alternative identifiers
Gerrit also supports an array of other change identifiers.
|
Note
|
Even though these identifiers will work in the majority of cases it is highly recommended to use "<project>~<changeNumber>" whenever possible. Since these identifiers require additional lookups from index and caches, to be translated to the "<project>~<changeNumber>" identifier, they may result in both false-positives and false-negatives. Furthermore the additional lookup mean that they come with a performance penalty. |
-
an ID of the change in the format "<project>~<branch>~<Change-Id>", where for the branch the
refs/heads/prefix can be omitted ("myProject~master~I8473b95934b5732ac55d26311a706c9c2bde9940") -
a Change-Id if it uniquely identifies one change ("I8473b95934b5732ac55d26311a706c9c2bde9940")
-
a change number if it uniquely identifies one change ("4247")
{change-message-id}
ID of a change message returned in a ChangeMessageInfo.
{comment-id}
UUID of a published comment.
{draft-id}
UUID of a draft comment.
{label-id}
The name of the label.
{file-id}
The path of the file.
The following magic paths are supported:
-
/COMMIT_MSG:The commit message and headers with the parent commit(s), the author information and the committer information.
-
/MERGE_LIST(for merge commits only):The list of commits that are being integrated into the destination branch by submitting the merge commit.
-
/PATCHSET_LEVEL:This file path is used exclusively for posting and indicating patchset-level comments, thus not relevant for other use-cases.
{fix-id}
UUID of a suggested fix.
{revision-id}
Identifier that uniquely identifies one revision of a change.
This can be:
-
the literal
currentto name the current patch set/revision -
a commit ID ("674ac754f91e64a0efb8087e59a176484bd534d1")
-
an abbreviated commit ID that uniquely identifies one revision of the change ("674ac754"), at least 4 digits are required
